Project Launch

Through a friend I recently found the website Kickstarter. If you have not heard of it before, it is a Funding Platform website that will help you raise funds for new projects. If you have a good idea and need funding all you have to do is complete the application and submit the project. If your project meets their guidelines then they will let you launch it.

Being our goal is to have the Mini Farm be a full fledged CSA, I decided to try it out and submit that project to Kickstarter. They liked it and launched the project yesterday. I asked for funding to build new Gardens and Greenhouses to provide the space to grow enough food for the CSA members. The Mini Farm already has a customer base with the animals we sell and many customers have asked to be put on the waiting list for when it gets up and running.

this sounds like a great idea, MDR, buddy and thanks for pointing the site out to me - i had never heard of it before. i must say that i am actually happily amazed at the number of people still left in the world who will donate to help others out. i think you are really on to a good thing!
